Magnetohydrodynamic Fluid Flow Past Contracting Surface in a Rotating System
Keywords:
Rotation, radiation, contracting surfaces, MHD.Abstract
Heat and mass transfer past a contracting surface in a rotating system has been discussed. In this study, the governing equations are transformed into a system of partial differential equations and solved numerically using finite difference method. The solutions are presented graphically for various parameters. The results obtained are applicable in areas such as polymer technology, metallurgy, cooling of metallic plates; control of boundary layer along a liquid film in condensation processes, cooling of micro electromechanical systems, shrink packaging, cooling of nuclear reactor.
